There’s been a bumper crop of bizzaro bets this week, and we’re not talking about some questionable plays at the sportsbook.
Weirdo wagers have ranged from the mayors of Tuscaloosa and College Station betting each other some tasty BBQ on the Alabama-Texas A&M tilt to one Redskins fan having to eat part of his beard after Washington lost to Philadelphia on Monday night football.
But the one backwards bet with the most on the line is the friendly - yet disturbing - wager between San Francisco 49ers QB Colin Kaepernick and Seattle Seahawks QB Russell Wilson.
According to the story, these divisional rivals have a single eyebrow on the line when they clash on Sunday Night Football in Week 2.
Wilson shot down the wager this week, stating that the shaved eyebrow bet was all in good fun and that neither he nor Kaepernick will shed a face caterpillar if they lose in Week 2.
“It was more of just a friendly, joking around type deal. It’s not real serious. We’ll probably do something digitally. Something like that,” Wilson told KJR Radio in Seattle.
The two young QBs have been closely connected due to their NFC West feud and the fact they took their respective franchises to prominence in 2012.
They were also featured in commercials for the new Madden NFL 25 video game, which spins yarn of a childhood rivalry between Kaepernick and Wilson stemming from heated games of Madden at summer camp in the early 90's.
Eyebrow or no eyebrow, Sunday night is shaping up to be a doozy. Oddsmakers currently have Seattle set as a 3-point home favorite in front of the infamous “12th Man” at CenturyLink Field.
The Seahawks are an “eyebrow-raising” 41-20-2 ATS in their last 63 home games - a winning percentage of 66.6 percent.
